NPC won’t support Duterte’s death policy

NATIONALIST People’s Coalition (NPC) will not support death penalty just yet even if the party already signed a coalition deal with presumptive President Rodrigo Duterte’s Partido Demokratiko Pilipino (PDP)-Laban that regards the restoration of the capital punishment as a priority.

Quezon Rep. Mark Enverga, the spokesman for  the NPC, noted that they are backing discussions on the revival of the death penalty, but they are not committed to a favorable vote for it now.
